RoverDriver: These images were taken to assess the state of the middle wheels which can be seen through the opening in the deck.

Attached Image

Pulled the middle wheels out of the shadows.
The centre-left wheel (right on the image) seems closer to the deck (illusion?)

Thanks, Paolo, I don't think even the sharp eyed members of UMSF would have noticed that! It makes sense that the current emphasis would be on mobility rather than characterizing the panels.



You could have picked it up from the PANCAMs we took over the weekend (Sol 1902) and a couple of sols ago (Sol 1900) where the middle wheels are more visible.

I suggest a new thread called "Getting unstuck in West Valley" or something to that effect... - This will take a while.


Agreed - moved posts to Getting unstuck in West Valley
